We invited five popular stars who made their ways up once again.
"Let's Climb Up Again Special".
(Welcome to the world of peculiar stars.)
You want to join our show as a host.
(Han Eun Jung criticizes the hosts.)
(Then, she brags about herself.)
(She's living with Gu Ra.)
I heard you met with him privately.
I think they went out.
(She became popular through variety shows with her perkiness.)
(I got invited to Radio Star because I lost weight.)
(Shim Jin Hwa became a multi-talented all-rounder.)
(Min Ho of Winner shows off his cute acts.)
(Min Ho made his way up again with his charisma.)
Shin Hyun Hee and Kim Root.
(How much did you look into us?)
(Hyun Hee and Root are so funny in an unexpected way.)
(Eun Jung impresses everyone.)
(Radio Star begins now.)
Up and down, up and down
Today's guests went through many ups and downs.
- Try to do it like Kim Sang Joong. - Okay.
We invited five popular stars...
who made their ways up again.
Today's theme is "Let's Climb Up Again Special".
First, she used to be a sexy queen...
who co-starred with pretty men like Rain and Lee Dong Wook,
but now she is...
a variety show star who is always with Gu Ra.
She became popular again...
through a show where she lives with Gu Ra. She's Han Eun Jung.
She and I stayed there together for four days.
She had to stay with him. I feel bad for her.
It's hard to even sit next to him.
(Both of them respond negatively.)
She's not ugly, but not so pretty.
She's not boring, but not so funny.
She used to live in the shadow of her husband, Kim Won Hyo.
However, she succeeded in losing 17kg.
Now she's enjoying her glory days...
for the first time in 14 years since her debut as a comedienne.
(She laughs out loud.)
- She must be happy. - She's excited.
She's Shim Jin Hwa who became beautiful by losing weight.
(She cheers.)
He's the runner-up of "Show Me the Money 4"...
- and the rapper of Winner. - That's right.
On a variety show produced by Producer Na Young Seok,
- he made a mistake. - It was a big mistake.
- He said something stupid. - Yes.
He got the nickname, Stupid Min Ho.
He's becoming popular again through variety shows.
- He's Song Min Ho of Winner. - Winner.
(They cheer and applaud.)
The other guests are reacting very enthusiastically.
The next guests who showed a good reaction are...
- They remind me of amusement parks. - Right.
- Amusement parks. - Yes.
They look like they just finished their fireworks event.
(They just finished their fireworks event.)
Because of their unique fashion style,
many people think they're celebrity stylists.
With her cute voice when she sings "Sweet Heart",
she won people's hearts.
They're one of the hottest bands.
The song they released two years ago climbed back up on the music charts.
They're Shin Hyun Hee and Kim Root.
Welcome.
Hello.
- Hello. - Welcome.
- Hello. - It's been a long time.
- Hello. - Hi, Jin Hwa.
- Eun Jung. - Yes?
- You live with Gu Ra on a show. - We stayed there for four days.
You became popular again.
It doesn't seem like they hit it off,
- but she really likes Gu Ra. - Really?
I cater to him.
(Gu Ra laughs.)
Gu Ra is very neat unlike how he seems.
I think he's quite individualistic.
- He's individualistic. - He cares only about himself.
(He loves himself so much.)
At first, he brought his own towel.
He used my towels from the second day of filming.
- I was... - He came to trust me a little.
It's not like that.
I heard you met Gu Ra privately...
when you weren't scheduled to record "Insolent Housemates".
- Yes, I did. - Is that true?
- Is it really true? - It's true.
You two met up privately?
- Gu Ra enjoys his life. - Without any cameras?
Yes, it's true.
We met up privately.
- Gu Ra and I recorded the show. - Yes.
He had doubts...
while recording the show for a few days.
- I guess he thought it wasn't bad. - I see.
It wasn't like that.
We once played an indoor golf course together.
- An indoor golf course? - An indoor golf course?
- On our show. - Together?
- On their show. - I see.
He called me to ask me to play golf outside.
- So we played golf together. - We played golf together.
That sounds like a date.
We played golf with two more people...
who are big fans of hers.
I arranged the meeting because of them.
She scored 80.
(She turns out to be the queen of golf.)
- She's good. - I got a high score too.
- Has he ever texted you at night? - No, I haven't.
- "Are you awake?" - Not once.
- I never did that. - He's not that kind.
(He's individualistic.)
We're not in a romantic relationship.
We have a very profound friendship.
(Gu Ra laughs awkwardly.)
We didn't say anything.
- He denies it when we said nothing. - Exactly.
- When he draws a line like this, - Our friendship is profound.
- doesn't it upset you? - Why would that upset her?
He drew a line between you two.
To be honest, I prefer people like Gu Ra.
I don't like people who are overly kind.
It makes me feel uncomfortable.
The people who played golf with us...
were too nice, and he stopped them.
He told them to stop it.
- They were over the top. - Was it because she's your woman?
That's complete nonsense.
He's ridiculous.
(You can tease Gu Ra after hosting Radio Star for 6 years.)
Eun Jung has become popular through her variety show.
She showed her desire for more variety shows to appear on.
She said she's good at criticizing.
She wants Kyu Hyun's position.
- Is that so? - Many people want his position.
- I heard that Kyu Hyun is... - Many people want my position.
going to join the military soon.
I watched Radio Star carefully. You have a gloomy atmosphere.
No, we don't.
- You do have a gloomy atmosphere. - That's true.
You need a cheery host like me.
It'd be nice to work with your housemate, right?
- I can lighten up the atmosphere. - They can go home together.
That would be awesome.
(I'm jealous.)
Eun Jung's true intention of coming on Radio Star is...
something that she should keep to herself.
I heard you're here to promote your nickname, Lovely Eun Jung.
Before I appeared on "Insolent Housemates",
people had found me to be cold and chic.
- Like a city girl. - She looked a bit cold.
- Many people thought that way. - Yes.
After I appeared on "Insolent Housemates",
many people said that I'm actually very lovely.
- What's wrong with her? - You said that yourself?
- Do people around you say that? - She's different from on the show.
- I didn't call myself lovely. - I should call it quits.
- Please continue. - My close friends said...
I should've shown that side of me sooner.
- Your loveliness? - Yes.
They said I'm truly a lovely girl.
(She's embarrassed.)
She was different from the way she appeared.
I can see why Gu Ra likes her.
- Don't say that. - You do like her.
- She has a good personality. - She's a nice person.
My fan club members decided to...
name the fan club...
- "Lovely Eun Jung". - What's the original name?
- It's "People Who Love Eun Jung". - I see.
- You should change that. - That's a very old-fashioned name.
These days, people don't use that expression anymore.
I guess most of her fans are in their 40s.
(Fan-meet with People Who Love Eun Jung)
As you appear on a variety show, you check online comments often.
- Isn't that the same for everyone? - She's right.
- Some people don't. - Gu Ra doesn't check them.
- I don't check them because... - You can't dare to read them.
I can't dare to read comments about him.
- I don't check them... - I'm afraid of it.
(I wish I hadn't read the comments about Gu Ra.)
Recently, one comment made you very angry.
I was reading the comments.
One of them was written by someone who was born in 2002.
In 2002?
It said, "Who is that old lady?"
- It's understandable. - It's from someone very young.
- I don't think that's upsetting. - It's understandable.
- It was shocking to me. - Was it?
I was called an old lady, not just a lady.
Eun Jung, you're very active now, but you were more popular...
through dramas like "Full House"...
- and TV commercials. - She was very successful.
- That person was young back then. - That's true.
- That person was just a baby then. - How old is Han Eun Jung?
- They wouldn't know you. - I understand.
Eun Jung was born in 1980.
- She is? - Yes.
- Please don't talk about my age. - "Eun Jung was born in 1980."
- She was born in 1980. - Look at this.
It's written right here.
- It's a voice recognition function. - Did it write down what I said?
It wrote, "Eun Jung was born..."
- "in 1980" just as I said. - Yes.
(Please stop talking about my age.)
In fact, when Eun Jung...
started to appear on "Insolent Housemates",
she hoped to have an idol star as her partner.
When she heard Min Ho would come on Radio Star too,
- she got very excited. - That's right.
How do you feel now?
He makes my heart flutter.
What do you think of Kim Root?
(Kim Root gazes at her.)
- Kim Root is... - What do you think of Kim Root?
I've been thinking of going to an amusement park lately.
(I will take pictures with you.)
Could he take off his hat?
- His hat? - That's a wig.
- I want to see his eyes. - A dove might come out of his hat.
When I take off my hat...
- Put it back on. - The wig didn't fall off.
- Please put it back on. - You should put it back on.
You look so pretty.
He looks like Shin Chul.
(He looks like Shin Chul.)
- Will Min Ho show his cute acts? - Me?
- Did you promise to do that? - You should thank Eun Jung.
- She complimented you. - She likes him.
(I'm here.)
(Eun Jung and Jin Hwa scream.)
Do you like it when a man acts cute like that?
- Yes, these days... - I like him too.
- I mean... - Min Ho, what happened to you?
(Kyu Hyun is shocked.)
Do you act cute for her too?
No, I don't. Why would I do that?
You stay there with her for four days a week.
- We have many other things to do. - Is that so?
Don't keep a distance from me like that.
That's harsh.
(Friendship)
What's going on?
- Don't... - It makes me feel disappointed.
- I'm disappointed. - Don't make people expect that.
- I'm disappointed. - She really sounds disappointed.
"Insolent Housemates" is...
a variety show...
where TV celebrities with different personalities share a house.
We comfort each other while living together.
We respect each other.
- He's drawing a line again. - That's so boring.
(That's so boring.)
- Jin Hwa. - Yes?
You endured great pain and lost 17kg.
She lost 17kg.
I realized something here.
- I made much effort to lose 17kg. - Yes.
And I'm the fattest among the guests.
(I'm not laughing because I'm happy.)
I wonder how she used to look.
I saw her before she lost weight.
We prepared her old photos.
- Did you? - Let's look at the first photo.
When was this photo taken?
- That's Won Hyo. - I think it's two years...
- after I got married. - I see.
- Let's look at the next photo. - Let's move on.
(He understands the situation.)
(Does she look sturdier?)
- We didn't know about this. - He looks quite slim in the photo.
- You were quite chubby. - I was.
- That photo... - Was it when you were the fattest?
- It wasn't when I was the fattest. - It wasn't?
- I see. - Here's the last picture.
- Is this when you lost weight? - No.
(Exclaiming)
- Lim Ha Ryong's in the photo. - Why is he in the picture?
- That was out of nowhere. - They all were taken at weddings.
Did you enjoy the food at the wedding?
I did.
Jin Hwa. After you lost weight, you were feeling very confident...
and claimed you look exactly like Kim Hee Sun and Chun Woo Hee.
- This will backfire on her. - That was...
I will show you the pictures. I will try this again.
You have pictures?
Show me the pictures I saved today.
He has a nice voice too.
- Here it is. - I see.
The one on the right is Woo Hee.
The one the left is Jin Hwa.
- They do look alike. - Jin Hwa has nice facial features.
- She does. - Thank you.
- Woo Hee is also pretty too. - This is the next photo.
It's a photo of Hee Sun and Jin Hwa, but they do look alike though.
- Look at the angle of the photo. - In that photo, I do look like her.
- I look pretty when I don't talk. - Hee Sun is prettier though.
(He interrupts Jin Hwa.)
By the way, Jin Hwa starred on a show...
called "Variety Show Employment Agency" with me. She said there...
- she wanted to star on this show. - Really?
I said that on "Pumpkin Seed", Gu Ra.
Really?
He films too many shows.
You should get some rest.
- Right. That's the show I hosted. - You did.
You said you watched every episode of our show for the last 10 years.
- Is this true? - Yes.
When I got invited to appear on the show,
- I was filming "Human Is Good". - Right.
- You have a cameraman with you. - I do.
It was because when I was shooting the show,
I heard I was to star on Radio Star...
and I started to cry out of happiness.
- You cried? - I was really happy.
- By the way, - When I was shooting the show...
guests on "People Is Good" cry when there are heartwarming situations.
How could you cry because you were invited to star on Radio Star?
- I cried because I used to... - I'm embarrassed.
imagine so many times. I dreamed of this every day when I watched this.
I heard your voice without looking at you.
Your voice is similar to Bong Sun's.
I was the first to do the laughter. On "People Looking for Laughter",
my catchphrase was "Goodness, I'm embarrassed."
I see.
- I wasn't famous. - What on earth was that?
She sounds like her.
Your voice sounds like hers. Then can you impersonate her?
"Stop talking nonsense."
(She sounds just like Bong Sun.)
Min Ho. Your group's name is WINNER, but you were always at the bottom.
Recently, you did a show with Na Young Seok and got famous...
for being slow-witted. With this, you seem to have gained popularity.
Older women recognize you now that you starred on a variety show,
- but there are disadvantages too. - Right. There are many.
The viewers in older age groups didn't know about me, but now...
there are people who want autographs with their names on it.
I am really happy with that. At the same time,
I am a singer and want to deliver cool performances,
but now people find me funny.
- There was another disadvantage. - What is it?
You lost your hair.
- It happened during the shoot? - Kyu Hyun.
- Is he thin on the top? - I texted you.
- I asked you to protect me. - Right.
- He doesn't have the authority. - I said it because...
Gu Ra always criticizes me.
What do you mean? We are all in this together.
- How are we all in this together? - If he protects you, it's not fun.
- That's right. - We ought to attack each other.
Then why do you always try to protect Kim Young Chul?
Did I do that?
- You did. - You asked to edit some parts out.
- Why did you try to protect him? - If I don't, he will be ruined.
(Young Chul, just sing "Calling".)
Isn't this nice since you're getting more air time on the show?
He despised me, but he's becoming like me.
(He's rapidly advancing.)
- You used to loathe and despise me. - On the variety show,
- You're becoming like me. - his hair got pulled a lot.
- It happened during the missions. - So you don't have hair loss?
- I just have thin hair. - That's true.
You shouldn't dye your hair when you have thin hair.
My hands are tied. I am an idol singer after all.
It's okay. Nowadays, he can implant hair from the back of his head.
- He has many options. - He has to implant hair already?
Using the hair from the back of my head will help people with...
- hair loss in the front. - You researched a lot.
- You did. - But then...
(They keep taking shots at me.)
- Does your father have hair loss? - How about your father?
- Does it skip a generation? - Skip a generation?
- It's doesn't. - Not necessarily.
- It could occur consecutively. - Right.
I was hoping that it was the case, but he is bald on the top.
- He's bald inside the top. - How old is your dad?
He was born in 1965.
- If so, then... - He's the same age with Gook Jin.
- It's understandable then. - He was born in early 1965.
- You are like his dad. - Then your dad is...
Your dad falls in the general trend.
- Since I was 17, I liked hip-hop. - You were worried about this.
- I used to wear hats all the time. - That's not good for your hair.
That's why I don't have a lot of hair. I get sad after the shower.
I think my dad figured out my problem and got me a gift.
- He gave me a helmet. - A helmet?
- Yeom Gyeong Hwan sells those. - He does?
- It's for hair loss. - It looks weird.
- It's a white helmet. - He sells those.
- It has some sort of laser. - Right, it does.
- Did you put it on? - I put it on in front of my dad.
When I put it on, I was humiliated to wear it at my age.
- You were ashamed too. - You must start taking care of it.
- If that's the case... - Wear it when you ride motorcycles.
Goodness. How could you say that?
It's a helmet after all.
When your friends come, you can say that you're practicing head spins.
Isn't this better?
It's the same.
(It's a bad example of using the helmet.)
You prepared caricatures for the hosts so that we would...
- take good care of you. - He's like an artist.
- He's really good at drawing. - He is?
I prepared each one for you.
- That's so cool. - Let me see.
He's an excellent artist.
- These are specially made. - You did?
- I put them in frames by size. - Show us the drawings.
I think you wanted to make fun of me.
- No, he drew it well. - You did an excellent job.
- He did a good job. - He's in Gwanghwamun.
- That's Gwanghwamun. - I see.
- I can see that. - He drew it so well.
I agree.
- His drawing is unique. - He's got some skills.
I don't think Gu Ra will say he's good at drawing.
- This looks exactly like Gu Ra. - I like this kind of drawings.
I sort of look like Antonio Inoki.
(They both have great chins.)
- This is nice. - You built on his strong points.
- He did. - Let me see.
That's yours, Jong Shin.
- Goodness. - I look sly in the drawing.
"Jung Woo Sung?" There's a question mark.
- You're right. - It's a scene from "Beat".
- Okay. - I see.
- He looks like Yu Oh Seong. - Right. He does.
Drawing Jong Shin was the hardest.
- Really? - It's because he's sly-looking.
It's hard to draw good-looking people.
- I agree. - You're talking nonsense.
It was easy to draw Kyu Hyun.
- To draw Jong Shin... - Why are you picking on me?
(His lines are simple.)
- You are talented. - How about mine?
I look like the villain from "Death Note".
- It's Gook Jin's turn. - This one looks the most alike.
- What? - He looks like Lim Baek Cheon.
- Doesn't he? - The scene is...
- one of the legendary scenes. - It's from Radio Star.
- It's the legendary scene. - I see.
(Gook Jin tried to put out the candles with a bat.)
(This was a special episode of Choo Shin Soo.)
(He showed his unbelievable strength from his small body that day.)
- The candles! - He put out the candles.
- It was the funniest. - I remember that.
- I really liked that episode. - You are really good at drawing.
- I agree. - You are...
- good at expressing the characters. - He's the best.
- Thank you. - Who was it?
- Lee Jae Jin? - He likes drawing.
- That's right. - Your agency has great artists.
Is their agency for artists?
(The agency cultivates professional artists.)
Your faces are unfamiliar. You guys are like AKMU...
- in independent music industry. - It's their turn at last.
You are Shin Hyun Hee and Kim True.
I mean...
- That's my nickname. - You are Shin Hyun Hee...
- You are Kim Root. I am Kim True. - I got used to saying Kim True.
You are Shin Hyun Hee and Kim Root.
People can't stop listening to your song "Sweet Heart".
The song is famous.
Can you sing us the song? It's climbing the chart.
- You can sing with the guitar. - "Sweet Heart".
- A lot of people sing this song. - Who wrote the song?
Me.
I haven't heard someone talk like that for a while.
- "Me." - That was cute.
"I did."
Is that a bass guitar? It's an acoustic bass.
- Can we listen to it now? - It's a great song.
In 1, 2, 3. My sweet heart
(I like you and you like me)
(We like each other, but we don't say anything)
(The melody and lyrics are catchy.)
This is it. Thank you.
(Are all the hosts satisfied?)
- It was simple. - Sure.
- Thank you. - We like simple things.
(We liked it because it was simple.)
It could be a stereotype.
Usually, the guys write the songs in duos.
What's the ratio of the songs between you and Root in the album?
- Is it 5 to 5? - So far...
- It's 9.5 to 0.5. - Whose songs take up the majority?
- Mine. - Her songs.
- So far, my songs are in the album. - I see.
- Some songs are not released. - You play such a small role.
I'm sorry to say this.
When this happens, the male partner gets switched out.
(Are you going to abandon me?)
When he sang, he just whispered.
(I like you and you like me)
(His whisper is almost non-existent. It's almost like the fine dust.)
That's all right. I am in charge of the looks.
(He's brazen.)
Hyun Hee. Aren't you from Daegu?
How did you know?
It's in the script.
- It's in the script. - We do our research.
What else would the writers do?
This is the first time the guest asked how we knew about her.
Root. You are from Chilgok, North Gyeongsang Province.
- It's famous for its rest stop. - Chilgok is famous for that.
- It has the best food. - It serves delicious food.
- It's famous for that. - The batting machine's still there?
- It's still there. - I see.
You lived in different areas.
- How did you find each other? - Daegu and Chilgok.
- Daegu is close to Chilgok. - How did we meet?
When Hyun Hee was 20 years old... I mean that's me. When I was 20,
- I was busking on Dongseongno. - You were.
Root came to Daegu on a trip.
- I was busking on the street. - I went there for a business.
Okay. Whatever. He saw me busking on the street.
- That's how we met. - What kind of business was it?
I was a teacher at an academy.
- What subject did you teach? - I have a feeling...
- I taught music. - you went to hold a magic show.
(Like this?)
He responds to every joke. Goodness.
He doesn't let a thing pass by him. He responds to everything.
Were you two raised in a different environment?
Root, your family raises cattle in Chilgok.
You were surprised to see Hyun Hee's family.
- It was 2012. - That time,
she invited me to her house because she wanted...
to show that she was working towards becoming a musician.
When I got to her house,
the floor was shiny.
- Her family is wealthy. - A dog came running.
Other dogs run like this in regular houses. It's cute.
- Her dog ran like this. - That means...
- The marble floor was slippery. - Right, it was slippery.
The dog kept on slipping, right?
- The floor was too slippery. - I bet the dog wanted to run.
That's what the dog did. I was surprised.
- Her family was rich. - I realized she's was different.
(He had a realization.)
Why is your name Root?
Are you good at mathematics?
Root can embrace all the numbers.
I wanted to embrace everyone with music.
I won't object you...
if you want to change your name to Kim True.
- Kim True? - How's Kim True?
But that's what was written in the news articles though.
That was in the news article.
(Shin Hyun Hee and Kim True Holds a Solo Concert)
It makes sense now. When I looked up my name, the article didn't pop up.
- That's right. - There aren't many.
What is your real name?
I will keep my real name a secret because everyone...
Your name is Geun Ho, isn't it?
- That's right. - It's Kim Geun Ho.
He thinks we won't find out...
- if he doesn't tell us. - Why is that a secret?
- How did you know? - Why would you keep it a secret?
Before this,
Hyun Hee asked the same question.
- I guess you can find them out. - Why would it be a secret?
- You know that... - Did you know that?
- How far did you investigate us? - How far did you investigate?
They are not that important.
(That's true.)
Can you elaborate on your mom's own clothing line in Daegu?
Did she launch a clothing line in Daegu?
My mom is a fashion designer.
Right now, she downsized it and is running it only in Daegu.
- I see. - Is it called Lena Jeong?
It's not a name brand.
- It's her own clothing line. - What is it?
It's called Madam Rose. So middle-aged women...
- They wear my mom's clothes. - That's her target group.
You seem to know this clothing line, Eun Jung. You were nodding.
From the name alone, I can feel what kind of clothing line it is.
It's exactly what you are thinking.
- There are clothes made of velvet. - That's right.
- Isn't that from her line? - This is...
- It's not at all. - It's from the turtle.
(The brand name means turtle in Korean.)
- What was that? - I can't say its name.
You have to make sense for us to understand.
- He's cute. - Just go to sleep.
(I'm new to this.)
- Madam Rose in Daegu. - Daegu is a fashion city.
- There are a lot of fashion shows. - That's right.
I don't think it's on the internet.
I haven't found any corresponding information.
- It didn't find any information. - It is...
(It's famous only in the neighborhood.)
Root. We didn't request this.
You said you will take off your sunglasses.
I take off when the situation requires it.
- You want to stay mysterious. - Right.
Let's see.
(I will show you just a little bit.)
(Screaming)
I think they like each other.
- I think they like each other. - No.
What is your ideal type?
I like guys who are kind.
- Root is really kind. - He looks really kind.
That's all right. I like other men who are kind.
- We don't like each other. - Do you have a girlfriend?
Yes.
You want to be mysterious, but your love life isn't?
(How do you decide what to reveal or not?)
- Isn't that a lie? - He's flustered.
(Laughing)
(He is flustered.)
Eun Jung. Your favorite sentence is...
"You don't look your age."
So you try so hard in order to hear that you don't look your age.
- I like... - She hates it...
when I bring up her age, but then...
- Didn't he say it so loudly? - I mean... I did.
- That she was born in 1980. - But...
Long time ago,
I like hearing people say that I was sexy and cute.
Nowadays, it's nice to hear people say I look younger than my age.
You have tights at home, right?
I put it on and tie it up when I am at home.
- You are lifting your skin. - It doesn't sag.
- If Gu Ra does that, - Yes?
can he look younger than his age?
When I see Gu Ra,
- I noticed his chin is sagging. - That's true.
- It's sagging more every day. - It's because of gravity.
- I wanted him to try this. - It's all gravity.
I accept natural aging.
- The tights... - How are you going to do this?
The way you do this is...
It's very simple and convenient.
- I have to stay still? - Yes.
They look great together.
This is how you do it? I see.
(Laughing)
Is this how you do it? This is nice.
It looks like you are suffering from mumps.
- Are you okay? - Wait. Wrap it around the head.
It's important to wrap your chin.
- This is how. - Wrap that part.
(It's a rare, friendly scene on Radio Star.)
This is how you do it.
- He's cute. - This is nice.
When I look at myself from a distance...
- Why do I need to do this? - You ought to.
- When I look at this from afar... - Actually, Kyu Hyun...
is too old to be an idol singer.
- His face did age. - Right.
- Here you go. - You look funnier.
You look really funny.
They are cute. How pretty.
- When you do this, - This is great.
it lifts your skin and stops the gravity from sagging your skin.
- You look great with it. - I like it. I really mean it.
Do you want to continue the show with that?
(We will do this at home.)
I heard one of the yoga moves can help you look younger.
- I heard you prepared a yoga move. - Right.
I wanted to share my tips on Radio Star.
People don't like their facial skin to sag...
- and want to look pretty. - Sure.
This will be great for you, Jin Hwa.
It will also keep your body in shape.
This will stretch the back of the thighs and the calves.
It will stretch the front of the thighs.
It's 1 move will stretch 3 spots.
- Show us then. - It might be hard...
since I'm not wearing proper clothes.
- She's wearing jeans. - She's so slim.
- I have to wear gym clothes. - That's right.
- She's wearing jeans. - Please take that into account.
- First, kneel down. - All right.
Put your hands down like this.
Lift your bottoms and make sure your heels are touching the floor.
- Back of my legs will be stretched. - Right.
After that, this is the scorpion position.
(Kick the leg high and bend your knee.)
(This is the scorpion position.)
(Amazed)
- You do this at home? - It's funny to do on variety shows.
(I will be funny and look young.)
- It's nice for the thighs. - The front thigh will be stretched.
It's a funny position.
(I don't know about looking young though.)
(They can't refute him.)
She's flexible.
Hold on.
You do this at home, right?
You wrapped this up nicely without getting us involved.
It's harder than it looks.
- You can do this, right? - Did you learn this yesterday?
(Did you learn for this show?)
- Jin Hwa. - Yes.
- You have your own tips. - Right. I...
- You mentioned Zumba. - Right.
- It's excellent for losing weight. - What is that?
- You lose a lot of weight with it. - Zumba?
It looks easy, but you will realize how great it is afterwards.
Zumba!
- Okay. - You're wearing pants.
- Is that your old pair of pants? - The pants are so big.
- You're right. - They're your old pants, right?
- Show us your Zumba moves. - Start the music, please.
There are a lot of moves in Zumba,
but at first, shake your body.
Her body is shaking quite a lot.
From the back, I can see your body parts shaking a lot.
Especially, that part. It's shaking hard.
(Let the energy come to me!)
(She takes off her burdensome shoes.)
(Trying hard)
- She keeps moving. - Right.
- That's good for her arms. - Do it!
(The audience is shaken up.)
(She shakes her body without stopping.)
This is like an aerobic exercise for middle-aged women.
All she's doing is just shaking her body.
She's going to go all out.
She's only shaking her body.
Is this Zumba dance?
(Are you certain?)
The cameraman was surprised.
I think it will help people lose weight.
This might...
- look easy. - But it's hard.
When you try it, it's really hard.
Did you learn this in a class or from a video?
- I learned from a video. - You didn't spend any money.
You are amazing.
I didn't spend a penny.
- This is a great workout. - By the way,
your hair is all tangled up from the sweat.
- Right on your shoulder. - Are you trying to take care of me?
It's a terrible sight to see.
(He's acting mean on purpose.)
(They can't refute him again.)
Min Ho. You are a rising star on variety shows.
Your special skills.
I saw this a lot. First of all,
show us your impersonation of Lee Jung Jae.
If you saw this a lot, then it's not interesting.
- You haven't see it though. - Why did you have to say that?
I was looking forward to seeing it.
- I was... - Goodness.
- I was trying... - You shouldn't have said that.
Why are you picking on my hosting skills?
"My hosting skills"?
This is my technique of hosting the show.
- Technique? - We'll see your special skill...
that Kyu Hyun has seen a lot.
(They will see Min Ho's special skill.)
"You see the bullet mark on the left, right?"
(Laughing)
- That was from a movie. - That was Jung Jae? I see.
(It ended quickly.)
- That was funny. - He will continue...
impersonating T.O.P of Big Bang.
T.O.P...
The most important thing about him is that...
I have to put force on the muscles of my neck.
When I inhale, I have to keep the inhaling position.
- Shall we play some music for you? - I will try as I am now.
(After he inhales, he opens his eyes wide.)
(Min Ho also opens his eyes wide.)
(It's important to stay as uncomfortable as possible.)
(Min Ho knows how to imitate T.O.P.)
How cute!
(I am the perfect T.O.P.)
(He shows his groove.)
(He shows T.O.P's charisma...)
(in an energetic way.)
(He is cute.)
(Peek-a-boo.)
(Peek-a-boo to you too.)
(He finished his performance with cuteness of a hip hop artist.)
He imitated T.O.P's performance.
He imitated T.O.P's facial expression.
I imitated his gestures instead of his voice.
You looked like T.O.P when you stiffened your neck.
T.O.P keeps his neck stiff.
Hyun Hee and Root...
prepared a series of specialties for Radio Star.
I saw him practicing at the restroom.
- You did? - Yes.
- Really? - They have many specialties.
Let's see them.
The first voice impression involves three singers,
Park Ji Yoon, Lee So Ra, and Lee So Eun.
- Does it combine the three artists? - It's a unique specialty...
because I can imitate Lee So Ra, Park Ji Yoon,
and Lee So Eun...
as the vocal range changes.
- Here I go. - Park Ji Yoon.
I will start with Lee So Ra.
(Calm)
(Everyone listens to Hyun Hee's imitation of Lee So Ra.)
(She tilts her head as the vocal range changes.)
That's Park Ji Yoon.
(Park Ji Yoon's voice is lighter than Lee So Ra's.)
(Lastly, she imitates Lee So Eun, who has a high-pitched voice.)
Their voices differ by the vocal range.
When did you imitate Lee So Eun?
I did it just now.
I am sorry, but it sounded like you imitated one person.
There is a specialty of silly dance. Will the two of you dance together?
It's my specialty,
but I don't like it when people call it that.
- How else would you call it? - Hyun Hee's dance.
It's simply a dance.
(It's not silly dance, but dance.)
(I will transform.)
She can dance very well.
- My goodness. - She can dance very well.
She can dance very well.
(She looks like she will soar into the sky.)
(Your dance is beautiful.)
(Fresh, haughty, sexy, and cheerful)
(Her silly dance has many charms.)
(Her dance has many charms.)
She can dance very well.
She has many talents.
- You showed us an unexpected charm. - She is the funny one.
Eun Jung, what do you mean you show a different style...
when you go on a vacation?
When actresses go abroad for a photo shoot,
they take 2 or 3 days off.
Most actresses spend the time by relaxing on the beach...
in a swimsuit.
However, I hate sunlight.
- I wear a golf mask. - It covers everything.
That's right. I wear that...
- and arm sleeves. - You wear them at a vacation spot.
I also wear tight pants and socks so that my ankles don't get tanned.
That's what I wear to lie down on a sunbed.
What's the point of lying down on a sunbed?
I still want to look at the ocean.
You can watch a video of it.
(What's the point?)
What's the point of lying down on a sunbed in that attire?
I have never worn a swimsuit...
- abroad? - Really?
I wore it once when I was young.
It's embarrassing to wear a bikini.
What do you wear when you go into the water?
- I don't go into the water. - My goodness.
What's the use of this body if you won't wear a bikini?
Give your body to Jin Hwa if you are going to use it that way.
- Seriously. - Don't be ridiculous.
If I were skinny, I would walk around naked.
- You will get arrested. - Strangely, I...
(Don't do that. You will get arrested.)
In a drama she was in, "Full House",
"Full House".
she befriended Song Hye Kyo and traveled to Japan together.
She played Song Hye Kyo's rival in the drama.
(In the drama, they fought for Rain.)
Even though it was a trip of friendship,
everything got ruined because of a liquor bottle.
Hye Kyo and I had planned to go on a trip to Japan together.
It was my birthday the day before the trip.
I had a birthday party with my friends...
and they made me drink a lot.
I was still drunk the next day.
We arrived at Japan.
However, since I was feeling sick,
- You were hungover. - the trip was ruined.
I felt very bad.
I decided to wake myself up by drinking a cup of coffee.
That's when the earthquake occurred...
- in Japan. - Were you in Tokyo?
Yes, I was in Tokyo.
My headache was dissipating,
- but the earthquake made it worse. - You felt worse.
Yes.
I threw up nine times.
(I threw up nine times.)
(Hye Kyo, I am sorry.)
As you probably know,
you need vitamin the day after you drink.
That's right. You need vitamin C.
I saw vitamin C powder on the desk.
I ate it and found it tasty.
I ate seven of those.
You overdosed on vitamin C.
- Do you know what happened? - Did you get a sour stomach?
- I threw up. - Again?
You threw up so many times.
Are you giving us tips on how to throw up?
(Embarrassed)
Jin Hwa, what does it mean that...
you became the nuisance of food-service industry?
I am from the countryside.
- I am from Cheongsong. - That's where the prison is.
- That's right. - Ice makgeolli.
- Apples. - Prison.
When I first moved to Seoul,
I became very impressed by the 63 Building...
and its buffet.
Their LA galbi was nothing like...
the LA galbi I had tasted.
They have more galbi than they do in LA.
The meat melted in my mouth.
The meat on the bone is tasty.
You are right.
- It's fun to eat. - She is very excited.
You look cute doing that.
- So... - Look.
Let's try it together. Go.
(We are so cute.)
- It makes you look cute. - Right?
What are you doing?
(Cute)
Even though I have been married for six years,
I have never served side dishes in plastic containers.
Are you afraid your husband will finish everything?
It's not like that. I want to set the table for my husband.
- I want it to look pretty. - Right.
When I cook,
I make a dish in large quantity. When Won Hyo leaves,
I end up finishing the dish.
The next day, Won Hyo would go,
"Why did you make a new dish?"
"We could have eaten one from yesterday."
- He thinks you did it for him. - "It's too much work for you."
- You did it since there is no food. - There is no food.
Jin Hwa, I heard that you once tried all part time jobs to earn money...
and became the queen of part time jobs.
Since I was in middle school, I delivered newspapers.
You delivered newspapers.
- I worked at a restaurant. - You were a server.
I also worked in construction.
- Construction? - My dad was...
- The head of construction site? - He managed manual laborers.
He worked at construction site.
On Sundays, I went to work with my dad at 6am.
I carried bricks.
Did you do manual labor?
Yes. I swifted sand.
- I did everything. - Do you know what "Yarikiri" is?
- Of course I do. - You do know.
- Of course I do. - What's "Yarikiri"?
I know what yakitori is.
The hardest part-time job...
involved cleaning up motel rooms.
- Why? - You cleaned up motel rooms.
Yes. When I was in college,
I learned that it was the highest paying part-time job.
The job provided room and board during school breaks.
Around Christmas and year-end,
I had to give up the room I was using...
because there was a shortage of rooms.
Upon entering my room the next day, I would see balloons...
and other things. That's why...
I wiped the floor as I cried.
I shed tears. Here is a funny story.
When couples come, they call the counter.
"Please bring us three bottles of beer..."
"and dried squid."
I would go to the room with those things.
When I ring the bell...
- They should crack open the door. - That's right.
You know well. You know very well.
- It's common sense. - Since he has a thin wrist,
he can get by with cracking open the door.
You stick out your hand, get the item, and retract your hand.
So...
What is this, "Old Boy"?
(Has he lived in a motel for 15 years?)
You had a unique part-time job.
Min Ho, some people say that...
you changed your image as a G-Dragon lookalike.
In the past,
you were like Jung Hyung Don's doppelganger.
- He must have been chubby. - What is this?
I have two pictures of Min Ho from the past.
I don't know why I was chosen to reveal them.
- My goodness. - Go ahead and do it.
Here is the first one.
What's important is that he lost weight.
(He was chubby.)
- You were cute. - You weren't fat.
He reminds me a bit of Hong In Gyu.
He is cute.
- Not bad. - He looks sweet.
That's right.
- Your mouth is very small. - Yes, it's on the small side.
You remind me a bit of Cho Yong Pil.
- You are paying him compliments. - Cho Yong Pil.
I have seen this picture.
It's his yearbook picture.
- My goodness. - It's his yearbook picture.
(He was Jung Hyung Don's doppelganger.)
He looks cute. He looks the same as Hyung Don.
I weighed 90kg.
How much weight did you lose?
I lost about 20kg.
I went on a diet in 10th grade that lasted a month and a half.
I lost 20kg in summer vacation.
How did you lose weight?
- P.O is a member of Block B. - P.O.
- Yes. - P.O.
He has been my best friend since high school.
I lived at his place and starved myself.
- Really? - Isn't P.O very rich?
- I think he is. - He was very rich at the time.
- Does that mean he isn't anymore? - After a few years of struggle,
he is beginning to reach financial stability.
- How do you know so well? - It's his financial situation.
- He is my best friend. - I see.
- You went on a diet. - I lost weight like crazy.
Once, P.O and I were sitting inside hot water in a bathhouse.
We got up to go to a sauna.
- When you starve yourself... - You fall easily.
We got up and P.O collapsed.
- He collapsed. - I rescued him...
- and laid him down on a bench. - Were you naked?
- Yes, we were. - Of course they were naked.
He cares very much about nakedness.
Why wouldn't you be naked in a bathhouse?
Min Ho, in the US,
you showed you foolish side.
- Foolish? - Foolish.
You pronounced it like "Hooligan".
He showed his foolish side.
Before debut,
Winner had a shoot in New York.
Seung Yoon, Seung Hoon, and I went outside.
On our way back, we ran into African American men...
who were enjoying their time. I thought they were cool.
They said, "What's up?"
I became excited and thought, "This is what the US is like."
I said, "What's up?"
"This is my mixtape." He handed me a CD.
I said, "Thank you." When I turned around,
he grabbed me and said, "Small tip."
He wanted a tip.
I thought it was the American culture. They tip.
- I took out my wallet. - He forced you to buy his CD.
- How much did you give him? - I tried to give him five dollars.
Seung Hoon was walking ahead of me.
When he saw this, he ran back. He has guts.
In Korean, he said, "What are you doing?"
- "We are not buying. Let's go." - He didn't speak English.
- He has guts. - He rescued me.
I was dragged away by Seung Hoon.
Then we realized we left Seung Yoon behind.
- Seung Yoon. - When we looked back,
we saw Seung Yoon give out 20 dollars to everyone.
- They were in line. - He received the CD.
Because it was hilarious, we took a picture...
before we rescued him.
(Help me.)
Ever since they were in a survival program,
I voted for Winner.
Did you see their newest dance? It's the best. Seung Hoon...
- Seung Hoon? - Yes, Seung Hoon.
- He is the one who saved Min Ho. - You don't mean Seung Yoon.
No, I am not talking about him.
Seung Hoon is the one who got 200 dollars taken away.
- No, he is Seung Yoon. - My goodness.
- Is he Seung Yoon? - He is Seung Yoon.
- You are very confused. - Didn't Seung Yoon rescue Min Ho?
- No, he didn't. - Seung Hoon did.
Seung Hoon did.
(We will work harder.)
Hyun Hee, it seems like you cry a lot.
You said it's frustrating because you cry all the time.
Root and I once got into a car accident...
and stayed at a hospital for a while.
My mom couldn't visit me because she was busy.
Root's parents visited and took us to a galbi restaurant to eat.
Then we went to a market.
Root's mom said, "Hyun Hee, you need undershirts too, right?
- Tears welled up in my eyes. - If you suddenly cry like that,
she will think, "They must be lovers."
- She will think that. - It's not like that.
- I am serious. - I cried because I was envious.
I envied that his family was so loving.
Since my mom is a working woman,
Root's family dynamic felt different and made me tear up.
Is there nothing to cry about today?
Being here makes me want to cry.
I watched Radio Star a lot at home.
Then we will have our guests cry two weeks in a row.
- I was surprised last week. - If you cry,
Radio Star will become a variety show based on humanity.
(A TV show that makes you cry, Radio Star)
The two of you give each other relationship advice.
As you get relationship advice from Hyun Hee,
you can't help but think she is a pushover.
There is a reason I ask her. Whenever I confess my love,
women tell me that they want to remain friends.
After a few years of that, I came to have no friend.
That means they didn't keep their promise.
- They wanted to remain friends. - When I said, "I love you,"
they said, "Root, I want us to remain good friends."
However, I came to have no close friends.
- I didn't have any friends. - All of them left.
Yes, all of them left. I realized...
that I should have friends. That's why I consulted Hyun Hee.
"What should I do?" Then Hyun Hee would advise...
and I would understand.
Now, I have an idea about relationships.
What is your ideal type?
I like a nice and kindhearted woman...
whose eyes crinkle in a charming way when they smile.
I also like long hair on women.
- It's hard. - Okay.
My goodness.
Why did you ask if you aren't interested?
Root, you have a fragile body that looks like it would fly away.
However, you are a man of miracle who had many brushes with death.
I had my first brush of death when I was hit by a truck.
- You were hit by a truck. - Yes, I was a child.
- It was a traffic accident. - Yes, I was following a balloon...
- when a truck hit me. - Did you go up in the air?
- Yes, I did. - Of course he did.
I still have a scar on my forehead.
- Do you see it? - There's a dent.
It's a scar from the accident.
I got stitches.
My grandmother had three cows.
When I was young, I felt like I could beat a cow.
I was beating it with a stick when it rammed into me.
- Things usually collide into you. - That's right.
When I woke up, I was on top of an A-frame carrier.
- It sounds like a cartoon. - It really happened.
(It's more like a cartoon than an actual cartoon.)
I also had a brush with death.
- What happened? - When I was little,
- I fell from the third floor. - Really?
I was playing with my friends by the railing...
when a boy pushed me.
Fortunately, I had a fashion sense even as a child...
and was wearing a velvet dress.
It was soft.
I acted as a parachute.
- That's how... - Are you serious?
That's ridiculous.
- That's ridiculous. - No way.
What are you, Inspector Gadget?
- I am serious. - What are you, a flying squirrel?
The fabric was thick.
It acted as a parachute. There was a pot.
- I fell into the pot. - You fell into the pot.
- That's how I survived. - Was there soy sauce inside?
No, it was an empty pot.
I had fractures in my legs.
(She survived thanks to velvet dress.)
I also...
- I am not done. - Everyone had a brush with death.
"I am not done."
That was the first one.
- This is like a battle. - Here is the second one.
- It will be your last one. - What was the other one?
You don't have to tell a story you don't remember.
Don't say, "I almost died of laughter."
An acquaintance of mine peed in the dark.
His urine ended up on the electric outlet.
- Oh goodness. - He got electrocuted.
- He got electrocuted. - It's really possible.
The current traveled up his stream of pee.
- That's right. - Really?
I am telling you it happened.
- For goodness' sake. - It really happened.
- You are committed to the shoot. - It really happened.
His pee landed on the electric outlet.
The current traveled up his stream of pee.
It would blow up.
It wouldn't blow up. It happened once.
You should try it at home.
Maybe I will.
I will pee on the electric outlet.
It will be shocking.
(Don't try it at home.)
I remembered.
- She remembered. - Let's go.
Children play with icicles when they are young.
Icicles formed by the roof...
and I wanted them.
I broke one, but the force made me stagger backwards.
I crashed my head into a taxi that was driving by.
- However, I survived. - Where on Earth were the icicles?
Why was there a taxi? Icicles usually form underneath a roof.
They were high up.
Was the taxi moving or standing?
It was moving.
I crashed my head into it,
but I was fine.
Eun Jung once captivated men with a Coke commercial.
Let's take a look at the commercial that turned her into a star.
Look up "Han Eun Jung's Coke commercial".
- I believe they used "Hot Stuff"... - That's right.
by Donna Summer. It's the one on the top.
It's 29 seconds long.
Shim Hye Jin was in a Coke commercial too.
That's it.
It was the best.
What year was it?
It was 2004 or 2005.
More than 10 years have passed.
You said that you want to look moist...
if you were to be in a commercial. What does that mean?
I once got makeup done to look sweaty.
It made my skin look moist.
The director said, "Eun Jung, you look pretty..."
"when you are wet."
Even when I didn't need to look sweaty,
he said, "Spray water on her."
I was always sprayed with water for that drama.
(Her face was always wet.)
I forgot to show you something...
I prepared.
(She takes out a face mist.)
What is that?
She forgot to do what she prepared.
- I forgot. - You should do it.
Spray it.
They say I look pretty when my skin is wet.
Make your skin moist.
- Do you spray your face like that? - Yes.
- It makes your skin moist. - It makes my skin moist.
She is pretty.
- Spray it a bit more. - Now that you have aged,
doesn't your skin absorb moisture faster?
Face mist doesn't help. My skin absorbs it very quickly.
You look like you are in a sauna.
Eun Jung, I heard you once got...
harassed by a stalker.
He even got my personal information and used it to harass me.
He often appeared in front of my house...
and gave me a hard time at night.
I met him and asked him not to do this.
But he didn't listen.
So one day, my manager said he was going to put an end to it.
And he went to the stalker like a tough guy.
But the man turned violent...
and threatened my manager to cut his Achilles tendon.
- Really? - The man physically threatened him.
Yes, physically.
- That's really unusual. - I've never heard someone say that.
"I'll cut your Achilles tendon."
He didn't say, "I know your weakness."
He threatened to actually cut your Achilles tendon.
Yes. And the next day, all my managers...
came to work wearing hiking shoes.
- The ones that cover your ankles. - Yes.
They wanted to protect their Achilles tendons.
(They could only rely on the hiking shoes.)
Jin Hwa, you've been married for six years now.
People say that you won't get pregnant if you and your husband...
- are too sweet to each other. - I know.
- I heard you're trying hard. - Actually...
We've been married for six years, and we really want a child.
But we can't get pregnant.
- Is nothing wrong with both of you? - There's nothing wrong.
We got tested, and the doctor said Won Hyo...
got unusually strong sperms. That's what the doctor said.
- The movement, the quantity... - Unusually strong sperms.
- His sperms are very good. - The movement...
- It's not easy to get pregnant. - I know.
I think it's the divinity that gives you a baby.
People say you won't get pregnant if you're too sweet to each other.
You have to fight sometimes too.
- Birth godmother is a woman too. - You should fight.
So we decided...
to pretend to fight.
What's that?
Do you think the birth godmother is a fool?
So we pretend to yell at each other.
The birth godmother will see them...
and say, "You're trying so hard. Fine, I'll give you the baby."
(We hope we'll hear the good news soon.)
I heard Won Hyo is so sweet that...
he even kisses your mother.
Won Hyo is unbelievably sweet.
When my mom comes to Seoul and I'm busy doing something,
he goes to the terminal to pick my mom up.
They always hold hands.
He always accompanies my mom when she goes to a clinic.
He says he has to go with her...
because she might feel dizzy after she gets her eyes treated.
They are so sweet that...
Look at his expressions.
(Look at his expressions.)
- My eyes hurt. That's all. - You...
- My eyes hurt. - What a coincidence.
- My eyes really hurt. - He...
He doesn't like stories like this.
(He doesn't like hearing about a sweet family.)
What does this mean?
You once got really upset because your husband had two mothers-in-law.
Won Hyo saved my mom's number as "My favorite mother-in-law".
He said "mother-in-law" to the phone to find her number.
Suddenly, two numbers came up, and both were saved as "mother-in-law".
So we both froze.
There were "My favorite mother-in- law", and "My mother-in-law".
I was like, "What's this?" And I told him to try saying my name.
I am saved on his phone as "My Girl".
So I said to the phone, "My Girl".
And "My Love" came up as well as "My Girl".
- There was another one. - Yes.
So I became really serious.
It turned out to be his ex-girlfriend.
(Oh, dear.)
It was his ex-girlfriend's number...
- It's his habit. - No. No.
Those were his ex-girlfriend and her mother's numbers.
He deleted their numbers, but when he bought a new phone,
the numbers from the old phone got restored.
He didn't even know he had those numbers.
I said it's his habitual practice...
because he must've kissed and been sweet to...
all his girlfriends' mothers.
(It's obvious.)
Min Ho's song "Fear"... How do you sing this?
- I'm scared - I'm scared
There's a reason why he sang this song.
When he was little, he was really famous as a chicken.
I haven't heard that word in a long time.
- We don't use that word often. - He was a chicken.
How much of a chicken were you?
I heard Seol Hyun said something.
When I was younger, I was really timid.
I couldn't press the bell to get off a bus...
(Right.)
When I was 8 or 9,
I went outside to play.
And I got beaten by some older kids.
When I came home crying,
my younger sister, who is a year younger than me,
asked me who did this to me.
She took me to them, and she paid them back for what they did.
- Did your sister lie about her age? - Your little sister paid them back.
- Perhaps... - "Actually, I was born first."
"I'm sorry for telling you only now."
I heard Kyu Hyun who aspires to be a rapper sang your song "Fear"...
- when you were drinking together. - I'm good.
But you drew the line and said you'd never work with him.
I refuse to work with you too. I'm going to work with BewhY.
He's really good. He sung it at his concert too.
I was really thankful, but...
when it comes to collaborating...
Are you saying you don't want to work with me?
You have to go your way.
I am a good ballad singer too.
- Of course I know. - You have to serve the army.
It looks like you're begging him.
I think I am desperate for affection.
(He tells the truth.)
(You know how I feel, right?)
Root's father was a famous internet broadcaster with enthusiastic fans.
Now, there's are streaming websites on the internet.
But before all that, there was one website that was the first.
- Right. - So...
- he streamed on that website. - This brings me back memories.
- What does he originally do? - What does he do?
He used to be an electrician.
Was he an electrician?
Can you ask him if you can get an electric shock through urine?
Please ask him.
Please ask him. Please ask him.
I will make sure to ask him.
He might have such experience.
(He wants to ask him right away.)
He worked with a screen name, Low Fence.
- Low Fence? - That was his username.
When the fences are high, you can't communicate with people.
You can communicate with people only when the fences are low.
They didn't have donations back then, did they?
- They didn't have it back then. - They didn't have it.
His fans gave him gifts to customize his avatar.
- Avatar. - But my father refused it.
He wanted his avatar to remain basic so that the fences will be low.
- He was being considerate. - He had his own principles.
So he had the basic avatar with a white t-shirt and shorts.
- It had shorts. - Right.
- He wanted to be easily approached. - Right.
He lived up to his nickname.
(He stood by his principles.)
I heard Hyun Hee's mother has more character and aura...
than Haha's mother, Kim Ok Jeong.
- Let's see her. - Let's do that.
(It won't be easy.)
Her style is very flashy.
She's flashy.
- It's... - She's Madam Rose.
- Goodness. - She designed it herself.
- Yes, she did. - Madam Rose.
- She's a fashionista. Fashionable. - She is.
- She's really cool. - That's a weak one.
That's very weak.
Did she visit your school festival and sing on the stage?
I was in middle school, and my mom prepared...
a surprise performance for me.
She sang Lee Mi Ja's "Miss Camellia".
As soon as I heard the prelude, I ran outside crying.
I wanted to enjoy the festival, and I couldn't understand...
why she would come to my school dressed up so fancily and...
- sing "Miss Camellia". - But you're going to be like her.
- I am getting scared. - Right?
- As I'm getting older... - You're going to be just like her.
We'll see what you will do to your own daughter.
- You'll be just like your mom. - I can't change my fate.
(She accepts her fate.)
You said your mom didn't like you doing music.
- I... - And you once ran away from home.
- But... - Why did she not like it?
My sister and I were supposed to continue my mom's business.
- That's why. - So she felt bad about it.
Normally, moms would report you missing if you run away from home.
But she reported you missing on social media.
That's more like promoting herself.
I think she's a very unique person.
What does this mean? Was she really trying to find her?
My mom is not good with computers.
One day, I got a notification that someone wrote on my wall.
And there was a long message. It said...
"Everyone, this is Hyun Hee's mother."
"Hyun Hee left home after saying that she's going to music,"
"and she hasn't been home for days."
I felt touched when I read the long message.
But she uploaded it as a secret message.
So only I could see it.
- That's better. - Perhaps it was her intention.
- She intended it. - Only you had to see it.
(It was my plan.)
You are watching a high-end music program, Radio Star.
Today, we are here with the five rising stars.
They prepared the songs that will make them even more popular.
Let's listen to Hyun Hee and Root's choice.
- Will Root sing? - Will you sing together?
I am going to sing today.
I think Root will just whisper again.
I'm so overwhelmed to be here.
I moved to Seoul to do music, and now I'm here on Radio Star.
It feels all very new to me.
And I really wanted to sing this song. He will be expressing...
- the Seoul moon with his body. - Will he be the moon?
- I will express it with my voice. - It will be a performance.
Root does a lot of things.
Hyun Hee and Root will sing "Moon of Seoul".
- Bravo, Root. - Cheers.
("Moon of Seoul" by Shin Hyun Hee and Kim Root)
(The moon I looked up tonight)
(They're surprised by her appealing voice.)
(Root is expressing moon in the back.)
(Root grabs our attention, and Hyun Hee sings unbelievably well.)
- Good job! - He doesn't look like the moon.
(Nothing works the way I hope)
(Root literally translates the lyrics into body language.)
(It's more like a magic show than a dance.)
(With the moon reflected in the glass)
(Even the computer graphics is true to the lyrics.)
(This night passes)
(He reveals his no makeup face.)
(He's clumsy.)
(He's struggling to express everything in the lyrics.)
(Hyun Hee's voice remains strong until the end.)
(And Root stays true to the lyrics until the end.)
Cheers!
(It was a unique performance of Hyun Hee and Root.)
Hyun Hee is amazing.
I think your dance translated the lyrics...
too literally.
(He stayed very true to the lyrics.)
- I love... - You sing really well.
- your singing, Hyun Hee. - Really?
- Your voice is very nice. - Really?
When you sing, you open your mouth very big.
My lips are small,
but I have a big mouth space.
So your voice echoes well.
So when I sing after talking,
people get surprised that my voice is so big.
Your singing voice is very different from your talking voice.
Because my mouth is so small, people don't expect...
- my voice to be that big. - You can hide things well.
(It'd be easy for her to hide things in her big mouth.)
When do you hide things in your mouth?
It happens in life.
(Gu Ra talks from his experience.)
- All right. - Let's listen to Jin Hwa's song.
It's not easy to sing this song.
("Bruise" is Kim Hyun Jung's song from her third album.)
Her voice is quite loud, so I think she'll be good.
Right.
- I changed the lyrics a bit. - Did you?
- Yes. - Comedians always do this.
- Let's hear it. - "Bruise".
It's the comedians' privilege.
I can't believe I'm going up this stage.
Why don't you make her a pass to enter MBC?
("Bruise" by Shim Jin Hwa)
(I looked down on fat)
(Didn't you all?)
She's good too.
(She changed it into a song about diet.)
(It was my fault)
(That I ate)
(It was because of Kim Won Hyo)
(Who said I looked pretty even when I'm fat)
No!
(But I ate everything like you wanted)
(And I got fatter than ever and gained 25kg)
(Turn me back)
(To how I was before I met you)
(Now I'm trying to lose weight)
(And the fats have solidified)
(To Kim Won Hyo)
(If you will fall in love again)
(I hope you will date Lee Gook Ju or Hong Yun Hwa)
That was so awkward!
(She laughs.)
"I hope you will date Lee Gook Ju or Hong Yun Hwa".
(Her witty lyrics make everyone laugh.)
- Who could hate her? - She's very funny.
(Thank you.)
There's a line like this in the movie...
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button".
"For what it's worth, it's never too late."
After going through all the struggles,
you climbed back up and became rising stars.
We hope you will continue to soar up high.
We will say bye here. See you next week.
- Please! - Please!
Goodness.
